II. u. H. Didn't Snub Mrs. Mackay

THEY ARE ON EXCELLENT TERMS AND REPORTS TO
THE CONTRARY ARE DICTATED BY ENVY.
Cable Dispatch to the New York Sun.
friend Of mine, who is a friend OF Mrs. Mackay,
expresses a good deal OF Indignation at some late
publications concerning that lady, and has handed
me the following letter:
"My Dear Friend: dare say you have seen In
the papers all the stories that are going the round
leve that you would think them true, yet should
like you TO know the true state OF the facts SO
far from there being any GOODNESS on the part OF
the Prince OF Wales toward me, have known H.
X. II. for three years, and he has always been
most friendly and kind during that time, and
is so still. There Is not one word Of truth
in what a New York society paper asserts,
that "H r H. the Prince Of Wales has coidiy'
cruelty and deliberately cut Mrs Mackay."
the prince has repeatedly remarked that ne
and socially inclined toward my compatriots who
come abroad, and also because / was SO independ-
ent, not allowing dictatiOn from any one, even
from H. r. H.! The story has been fabricated evi-
IDENTIFY out OF petty Jealousy by some Of the many
who are envioils Of the success have had In Eng
lish society when they have failed. They say rur-
ther that 1 induced Mrs. Brown Potter to leave
Mrs. Paran Stevens 1t is simply shamefully false.
Mrs. Brown Potter only came 10 my house to spend
few days during MRS. p. Stevens absence in
Paris, she did not wish to remain quite alone in
a hotel. In the meantime Mrs. Brown Potter and
Mrs. p. stevens quarreled, and when Mrs. p.
Stevens came back to London Mrs b. Potter re-
fused TO return to the hotel as Mrs. p. stevens
guest, and remained with me up TO the time she
sailed for America. Mrs. p. Stevens and are still
good friends.
"And again, so far as Mrs. B. Potter being the
means OF bringing the Prince OF Wales to my
house, had already entertained H. X. H. before
Mrs B. Potter came to London! The story OF the
famous diamond necklace" is as popular as ever
and does not gain In truthfulnes5 by false repeti-
TONS The reality was simply this: Lady Mande-
ville being compatriOt and dear friend Of NINE
begged TO be allowed to present Inc TO the queen
when the presentation should take place. This
was agreed upon before MI Phelps came as min
lister to London Hence the reason that was pre-
sented at court by Lady Vaudeville, and not by
our minister, Mr.. Phelps. The present gave to
Lady NJ, so far from being OF great value, was
very simple and modest souvenir, given to her in
remembrance OF the occasion. have never in
manner or form contributed TO Mrs. b. Potter's
debut, or given her one dollar to purchase her the
atrical wardrobe.
